 well i know how you feel trust me.

i started making things about 2-3 months ago and it took almost a week for any of my things to get even 100 views. it sucked and i wanted to give up

but, as time went by, i got know more and more and soon i got to where i am now. i am known well by a few, and know pretty good with other members.

i still feel noobish when i see people like KSC and his ratings and views.
for example: Within the first 2 hours he posted his alarm clock, it reached 4.16 and had 700 views. 

My advice: post tons of comments everywhere, (ex: dj radio), under ALL of your comments say " check out my knex stuff", make the tags/key words for whatever you post have about 200 words in it, and make friends on everybodys OB (ex: go around to every knexers ob and write "hey i looked at all your stuff and it amazing!!! -subscribe- then say check out my knex stuff")


IDK !!! the answer is time!!!

Hey Subscriber!

I see you have not yet been subscribed to me a full year yet, so I'll let you know now that I comment on all my subbers' orangeboards at Christmas, and whenever I have a contest entry lol.

But I digress,

Just wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy new year! Thanks for subscribing as always, and sticking with me! If you could take the time to check out my new forum topic, that would be awesome, as well as my new video! Both links are below, and once again, Merry Christmas!

 Hi this is SUPER DUPA IMPORTANT! Have you ever connected to the internet on the wii? If not can you PM me your wii code (i'll explain if this applies to you) and then we both fill in a survey and both of us get 500 points to spend at the wii shop! This basically means we get a free NES game for the wii!
Dec 2, 2009. 7:44 PMKnexFreek says:
 I HAVE!!!! HOW DO I DO THIS OMG!!!!!! WHAT DOO I DOOS?

Do you like my new single shot rifle? I am yet to add a grip underneath the barrel. It uses about 625 parts, and can shoot really far (not measured. Yet.)!
Oct 4, 2009. 11:52 PMLowney says:
Handle: 5 thick, k'nexsayer grip (soz) Firing Mech (not final): A ratchet, similar to the sipriani rifle Stock: Very nice! It is not finished in the picture when it is it will have a feature that will make it a one-of-a-kind gun!
Oct 6, 2009. 12:07 PMLowney says:
It failed badly. I'm scrapping the ratchet. And the rail. And the design. And the ammo. Hell, I'm making a whole new gun! It will still be a sling, but it won't be a block, true or sears trigger. It will be my own, far better (for this kind of thing) push mech!
Oct 5, 2009. 1:45 PMLowney says:
Damn you worked out my plans >:|
Oct 5, 2009. 2:30 PMLowney says:
Yes but don't expect it soon. I am very busy with coursework at the moment. As I speak it is 10:30pm at night where I am and I have just finished a religious assignment which I begun at 4pm. Oh joy. I had a break every half hour or so, where I check my 'ibles messages (like now), emails, YouTube messages and others. Then went for a 2 minute walk down my road. And then back to the misery that is: Christian teachings on Racism.
Oct 5, 2009. 2:55 PMLowney says:
PM I take it? It's now 11pm. I might hit the sack I'm done with my coursework
Oct 6, 2009. 7:25 AMLowney says:
What on a school night? Well good luck anyhoo
